According to a PPP poll, 54% of the American people are afraid that Santa Claus may have to cut benefits if this country goes over the so-called "fiscal cliff".
What I find to be discouraging is that at least 54% of the American people, and probably a higher percentage than that, are stupid enough to believe in Santa Claus in the first place.
I have never understood why so many people in this country have bought the lie that religious clergymen, the mainstream media, and corporations have been spreading for decades that, on Christmas Eve, a guy from the North Pole dressed in a red suit rides a sleigh around the world giving gifts to children. NONE of that is true at all, and I find it absolutely depressing that the Federal Government is using taxpayer money, through NORAD, to fund a fake "NORAD Tracks Santa" project.
Santa Claus does not exist, and it's about time that the American people wake up and realize that.
